Hahahahahaha.. Nice Mr. Deflok.

I heard that got edited out though...

He got edited out but his voice is still in it (apparently).
I stayed away from spoilers for the past few weeks despite probabaly having heard them all now anyway. |
Dooku, hands down.
Lets compare it to another battle, Anakin vs. Obi-wan. Who gets owned in that battle? |
Both Dooku and Maul is still training in the art of the Dark Side.
Yoda said that there's only one apprentice and one master. Maul first appeared 10 years ago in Esp I as an apprentice and was killed. Dooku is also an apprentice, although, he seemed to be more trained in the force. But if Maul wasn't killed 10 years ago, then Maul obviously would have more training than Dooku and hence, would've easily killed Dooku. |
Lets not forget that Darth Maul was also a Teräs Käsi practitioner. Normally its practiced with out a weapon but Maul was working his Lightsaber into it. "quoteing the book Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter"
Maul spun on his right foot and shot his left leg out in a powerful side kick, slamming his boot into the droid's armored chest, stopping it cold. He dropped into a squat, spun the lightsaber like a scythe, and sickled the droid cleanly at the knees. Lower legs gone, it collapsed as Maul again twisted himself and his weapon, flowing into the form known as Rancor Rising. He brought the right blade up between Chain's mechanical thighs, hard, using his leg muscles to augment the strike as he pushed up from the squat to a standing position. The force of his strike bisected Chain from its crotch right through the top of its head. So with the use of his saber and martal arts, Dooku would not have stood a chance. IMO. |

That scene is rather interesting, I forget what Qui-Gon said that made Yoda request to become his apprentice |

Spoiler: Obviously it's Obi-wan in Esp III simply because he manged to fight Anakin off to the point where Anakin falls into the Lava and become badly multiated that he needs the life support that makes Darth Vadar so famous for. On the other hand, Anakin strikes down Obi-wan in Esp IV. (I don't care if Darth Vadar and Anakin are 2 different people for those of you who are hardcore SW fans). |
Quote:
Anakin 'kills' obi-wan in ANH because obi-wan lets him, theres no other way of looking at it. If Dooku and maul were both unarmed, who do you think would win? Dooku. It's only because of a lightsabre people are actually going for maul, or saying it was a tie. A lightsabre isn't the only thing in a jedi/sith armoury. |

Qui-Gon sets that straight and Yoda goes to Dagobah where there is mass life readings (Luke says this himself) which is the best place to learn about the living force. So yes, Qui-Gon does teach him a lesson. |

Sorry about thread jacking. |

Obi-Wan however was kicking Maul's ass. He completely manhandled him, and I don't see how anyone could think Maul was any better than Obi-Wan. He cut the saber Mau's saber in half, and would have won but Maul snuck in a force push. Then Obi-Wan flew up and cut him in half anyway. If Maul was no better than padawan Obi-Wan, the master Obi-Wan would annihilate him. And he was defeated by Dooku. So easily Dooku > Maul. |

I would like to say Maul but his Force powers are much weaker than Dooku's. As mentioned earlier by Kazic, Dooku has honor even though he is a Sith..so he would prefer to just battle with a jedi until either party gives up or retreats. which he did in episode 2. In a straight saber duel, Mail would win. He kicked Obi Wan's ass (for a short time) and he killed QG. His martial arts plus the dual lightsaber made him a respectable opponent.
Question, why isnt Dooku considered a 'Darth', but a 'Count'? Spoiler: When Palpatine ordered Dooku killed in the opening sequence, Dooku looked surprised. Do you believe it was shock that his master ordered him to be killed or just that Palpatine wanted him killed..basically do you think Dooku knew who Palpatine really was. |

Does anyone know of a book that talks about Darth Tyrannus?

I do believe there is a novel based on him but I don't follow the EU closely so I could be mistaken. |
I haven't seen any books (that doesn't mean they aren't there, but I'm usually pretty up-to-date) specifically about Dooku. I've seen (and read) one about Maul though.
|
So - the general feel seems to be that Maul < Dooku and that Obi-Wan > Anakin/Vader
Go for the Jedi/Sith Royal Rumble. Starting with QuiGon, Yoda, Windu, Luke, ObiWan, Vader/Anakin, Dooku, Maul, Palpatine in the ring, who goes out in what order, and who wins in the end. If you want to make it interesting, who allies with who durning the battles? |
I think many people are missing the point that skill isn't the only thing that dictates who will win the fight. Luck is always a big contributor. We can say that Obi killed Maul but couldn't take Dooku, therefore Dooku is the best. However Anakin killed Dooku but was beaten by Obi. Therefore, couldn't that imply that Obi was better than both Anakin and Dooku? Logically, in Ep IV, the only reason why Vader was able to kill Obi was because Obi let him.
